• Companding: 
Reduces the channel noise such as OTA transmission that is predominantly present in UHF2 and 900 MHz 
channel with the following features. 
Compressor – reduces the background noise flow and the speech signal at transmitting radio. 
Expander – expands the speech while the noise flow remains the same at receiving radio. 
 
• Random FM Noise Canceller (Flutter Fighter):
